hahah yeah it does save money! khong soon charge me $100-$200 range, compared to online USD$199 new block! But still the appearance of the block is different ma..my block chui already, previous owner go and spray paint black ..tried removing it but i still cannot see original metal colour. It seems to have a coat (dirt?) over it..any idea on how to restore back to near original colour?

 

Who's bike did you buy? Yellow colour bike?

Try soak in thinner......and brush it. Paint remover? If got dirt, used grease remover lah......and brush it lah ,sure can come out.

All those may need alot of elbow grease.

Got money do sand blasting.

Hey guys, i'm looking for the 1976 cb400 four supersport to rebuild. Any news of any still in existence?? Dam, the last i saw but didn't buy was way back in 2001. Please give me some clue where to locate. Thanks!

Yah it still exist in some part of S'pore, think less than 8 ba. All exported out liao.

I have seen four - two OTR before, one ridden by an old uncle think living in Bishan but I circle the bishan area carpark cant find the bike Hmmm...., one by a 20 plus yr guy riding pass Toa payoh area,

and the other two - one from an old uncle who sold my friend a cb200 in 2000, he shown me his photo of his other bike which is a cb400 four and a norton at his JB home. The last one think own by jeremy or by kallang cycle if not wrong.

 

Hmm..........all four is in blue.......

All i can is that the CB400four engine's as smooth as super 4 but don't expect the top speed of a super 4. It only has an electric start but the four exhaust looks quite impressive....either ya like or ya hate it cos it looks real old n clumsy beside the super 4. Hard to find one but at least its not your common bike running around. AS for parts, no problem at all, can order. Pretty easy bike to maintain....change engine oil regularly and it should not give much problem.

 

Good luck in your hunt and some pictures to motivate ya in your hunt!!

Yap.

Used to hunt for this bike but now a bit difficult liao.

Think the uncle got high chance, a few of us saw the bike before - include marco, chris2. He fix a rxk seat on it. Quite a fast bike I would say.
